Annual lawyer discipline hearings scheduled

Attorneys
and members of the public will have an opportunity next month to offer
comments about attorney disciplinary procedures, competency and
admissions procedures at hearings in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

The
San Francisco hearing will be held Dec. 4 at the bar offices at 180
Howard St. The Los Angeles hearing is scheduled for Dec. 13 in the
bar’s offices at 1149 South Hill St. Both hearings begin at 10 a.m.

Individuals
who wish to speak or offer written materials should contact Doug Hull
at 415/538-2015 or doug.hull@calbar.ca.gov by Nov. 30.

Every bar should do this every year. And they should listen to the concerns that are expressed. (Mike Frisch)
